Define Prophase

• b. when the sister chromatids separate and moves toward opposite sides, third phase of mitosis.

• f. when sister chromatids line up in the middle of the cell, during division.

• c. when the replicated chromosomes (sister chromatids) coil up and become visible, and the centrioles go to opposite sides of the cell.

• e. when the chromosomes uncoil and disperse into a tangle of dense material ( chromatin) . The final phase of mitosis.

Define cancer

• 1. the process of cell division including division of the nucleus.

• 9. area where sister chromatids of a chromosome attach.

• 6. Phase of the cell cycle when cells prepare for cell division by making more organelles and cytoplasm.

• 2. disorder caused when cells lose the ability to control growth and continue to divide.

define chromosome

• 7. Thread like structure with in the nucleus containing genetic information. Made of DNA coiled around proteins.

• 5. Replication or synthesis of DNA and associated proteins that happens before cells divide.

• 10. series of events cells go through during their life time, before, during and after they divide.

• 9. area where sister chromatids of a chromosome attach.

Define chromatid

• 2. disorder caused when cells lose the ability to control growth and continue to divide.

• 8. half of a duplicated/replicated chromosome. One of two "sister" parts, makes half of the "X"

• 4. phase of the cell cycle after cell division, growth and day to day life of a cell.

• 3. part of the cell cycle when the cell is not dividing
